Chapter 78 Xiu is injured
"Where are they now?"
Although Casio wasn't the one who poisoned the cake, the fact that he knew what was in it immediately meant he was no ordinary person.
Noah would not allow someone of unknown origin who was familiar with poisonous drugs to stay by Qi Yuan's side.
"He might have been in a restaurant, or he might have been in a dormitory. Mr. Qi Yuan also sensed that his background was unusual, so he asked a few simple questions and didn't pursue the matter further. Perhaps Mr. Qi Yuan felt that since the other party had come out to stop it as soon as he discovered the cake was poisoned, he hadn't changed his ways and didn't investigate further," Asha said.
Noah frowned.
If the Casio watch was faulty, he could have simply refused to eat the cake and pretended not to know anything when he discovered it was poisoned. However, the fact that he spoke up immediately suggests he had no intention of harming anyone.
Noah was cautious, and even though Qi Yuan thought Casio was harmless, he still had to ask him personally.
"Have Andrei investigate Casio Illie, and you bring Casio to me with your men."
"Yes!"
Upon receiving the order, Asa immediately went to carry it out.
Noah suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Right, have Andrei investigate the person who delivered the poisoned cake."
"Yes!"
Noah's brow remained furrowed.
He had anticipated that someone would target Qi Yuan, but given the recent quiet, he assumed the other party wouldn't dare.
I didn't expect them to make a move today.
However, the other side's intelligence was clearly insufficient.
Qi Yuan doesn't like sweets, so no matter how beautiful or expensive the cake is, he would never eat it.
This can be seen.
The person who carried out the attack couldn't obtain intelligence from the Davis family, so it must have been done by someone outside.
In Juecheng, there are very few people who have the courage to do these things.
Having already guessed who might have done it, Noah's expression turned cold.
"Master! A messenger from the Robinson family has arrived. He says Mr. Xiu was stabbed in the street and is currently in the hospital receiving emergency treatment!"
The housekeeper rushed over to inform them.
Noah's expression changed again. "Prepare the car."
"Yes!"
The butler hurriedly ran to prepare the car.
Noah strode back home and saw Qi Yuan cooking dumplings for Petty in the kitchen. He walked over and whispered in Qi Yuan's ear, "Xiu was stabbed. I'm going to the hospital to check on him."
Qi Yuan paused in his cooking of dumplings.
He looked at Noah with a slightly surprised expression.
Noah kissed his cheek. "Stay home and behave yourself. Don't run around."
"Understood," Qi Yuan replied.
Patty blinked her round eyes at their intimate gesture and asked, "Uncle, are you going to work?"
"Yes, I need to go out to work."
"I want a kiss too."
Noah crouched down and rubbed her little head. "Next, your aunt will play with you. Don't bully him."
After saying that, he kissed the little girl's cheek.
Patty nodded obediently, "I won't bully Auntie, Uncle, don't worry."
"So nice."
Noah finally patted the little girl's head before standing up.
He didn't say anything more, changed into his outdoor clothes, got in the car, and went to the hospital.
Outside the hospital operating room, Xiu's father, Thorn Robinson, stood anxiously. When he saw Noah arrive, he was initially surprised, seemingly unable to believe that his son's injury could cause Noah's concern.
Immediately, he was delighted. People outside said that his son was not as favored as Qi Yuan, but Noah came shortly after his son was injured. This showed that his son was also very favored.
Thorne was overjoyed, but thinking of his son's unknown fate, he put on a sorrowful expression.
"Mr. Noah, you've finally arrived! I don't know which bastard dared to hurt Xiu! My poor child, he's inside now, and I don't even know if he's alive or dead."
As he spoke, the old man managed to squeeze out a few tears.
Noah glanced at him indifferently and asked, "Where did you find Xiu injured?"
"Right at our doorstep, the maid heard the doorbell ring and went to check the door and saw Xiu lying on the ground. Luckily it was at our doorstep, if he had fallen somewhere outside, my child would have died!" Thorn said excitedly.
Noah didn't speak; he stared coldly at Thorn.
Xiu is now determined to become the head of the Robinson family and seize everything his father owned, which shows that he hates his father very much.
Xiu's departure from the restaurant couldn't possibly be to go back to Robinson's house. He went out to inquire about Shi Bai's whereabouts. His return to Robinson's house might be because he discovered someone was following him and trying to kill him. Since they happened to be near Robinson's house, he thought he should go home to avoid them.
However, Xiu was a step too late and was stabbed at his doorstep.
Noah glanced at the bodyguards behind him and said, "Arrange for fifty men to guard the area around the hospital and protect Xiu's safety."
"Yes."
The bodyguard accepted the order and immediately went to carry it out.
When Thorn heard that so many bodyguards had been arranged to protect his son, he was overjoyed. "Mr. Noah, you are good to Xiuzhen. It is Xiuzhen's blessing to be able to follow you."
"I will not treat those who have brought me happiness unfairly."
Of course, this 'happiness' has many layers of meaning.
Thorne, however, understood a different kind of joy. He was happy that his son, who was the most disobedient and embarrassing to him, had become so sensible with Noah.
“This is what Xiu should do, Mr. Noah. What if Xiu doesn’t make it this time?” After saying this, Thorn immediately looked at Noah’s face.
Noah sat on the bench by the door and said coldly, "I will make that guy pay with his life. You don't need to worry."
"That's it?" The words had barely left his mouth when Thorn realized his mistake and quickly said, "Mr. Noah, what I meant was... Xiu, he was in danger because he was with you..."
He didn't dare say it outright, but the implied meaning in his words was quite clear.
Noah could also tell that the old man wanted to squeeze every last bit of value out of Xiu.
Remembering his promise to Xiu, Noah hid his disgust when facing the old man and said, "I really like the goods that the Robinson family brought from the East Continent. From now on, I will only buy East Continent products from your family."
“Okay, okay,” Thorn replied happily.
Noah suddenly remembered something and said, "I remember the Robinson family made their fortune on a farm, and you have a large farmland on the Kemala Plain."
“Yes, yes,” Thorn replied. “Actually, you could say that the entire Kemalna Plain belongs to our family. It’s been passed down from generation to generation. At first, it was just a small piece of land, but as our ancestors became richer, they bought more land here and there, and before they knew it, they had bought up all the land in the entire Kemalna Plain.”
Noah's expression darkened. "So, that land is the Robinson family's ancestral home?"
"Yes, although the farm doesn't earn as much as trading goods, as long as we have that piece of land, our Robinson family won't go hungry."
